6. You have to bring your fish inside for the winter.

Fish do fine in the coldest of winters as long as you give them two feet of water to swim in, oxygenate the water and keep a hole in the ice with a bubbler, allowing the naturally produced gasses to escape from under the ice.  Otherwise, you let Mother Nature do the rest.  The fish will spend the entire winter hibernating at the bottom of the pond and then they will slowly wake up as the water warms in the spring.
